Food safety

We have a duty to ensure businesses manufacturing, preparing, cooking and serving food to the public in North Somerset do so safely.

We do this by ensuring food is prepared in a suitable environment, those involved are trained in food hygiene and procedures are in place to guarantee food safety.

We support these requirements by carrying out routine inspections of more than 1600 local food businesses, and provide food hygiene training.

In addition our Food Safety Team is available to help and give advice about temperature control, cleaning and disinfection, pest control and accidents.

For further information on food safety regulations and running a business visit the Food Standards Agency website.
